Chapter 1018: Envy of the Meat
It’s just that the imagination is beautiful, but the reality is impossible.
In the end, she decided not to care about the hair or not, so she just cut the pig in half, cut the other half in half, and threw it into the backpack with the hair on.
After that, he tidied himself up and left the space.
It was getting late by the time we got here, and the sun was already setting.
He glanced towards the pond not far behind, then silently put three fish from the space on the backpack, and then quickly went to Guangming Village at the foot of the mountain.
When she arrived at Guangming Village, she didn't avoid people. When someone saw her, they came forward and greeted her enthusiastically: "Isn't this Xia Qiu's sister? The full moon banquet is not scheduled for tomorrow. Why are you here today?"
Chu Xue smiled and pointed to the basket on her back: "My family asked me to send some meat over so that we can have a better feast tomorrow."
When those people heard that they were here to deliver meat, their eyes lit up instantly: "What, deliver meat?"
Chuxue naturally wouldn't let them see the hairy wild boar meat. After all, everything on the mountain was collective. Everyone tacitly agreed that each family could enjoy pheasants and rabbits, but that was not the case with the big wild boar.
So when she was packing her things, she placed the quarter of the hairy wild boar at the bottom of the backpack. In order to hide it from others, she also put a piece of plastic sheet under the backpack to prevent any remaining blood from dripping and being seen.
On top of it were three pheasants, two rabbits and three big grass carps taken out from the space.
Those people saw the fish on top and said: "Where did you catch this fish? It's really big."
Chu Xue smiled and pointed to the mountain: "In the pool halfway up the mountain."
When they heard it was that pond, everyone's face changed.
There were quite a few fish in that pond, but last summer someone went to catch fish to help his wife, who was in confinement after giving birth, to increase her milk production. He accidentally fell in, and because there was an undercurrent under the pond, he was almost sucked in.
The man was rescued by the villagers who went with him, but unfortunately he had been soaking in the water for too long and ultimately died.
So when the pond halfway up the mountain is mentioned, everyone's fear changes.
Chu Xue saw everyone's expressions and then remembered the news she had heard before: "Aunts, it's getting late. I'll be leaving first."
As soon as she left, those people went into an uproar: "Xia Qiu is so bold! She actually dares to go to a place that all the men in the village are afraid to go to?"
"He just came to deliver something, and it doesn't necessarily mean that he caught the fish. Didn't you hear him say that his family asked him to come and deliver it?"
"That's true."
"No matter what, the Qiu family's dinner tomorrow will definitely be a success."
"The Shaofeng Yue family is so kind! They even gave us extra dishes for the full moon banquet?"
"What you said is not new. Besides, adding more dishes to the full moon banquet shows that Xia Qiu's family values their daughter and grandson. To put it bluntly, they are supporting their daughter."
"When Shaofeng's wife first married in, the second wife of the Qiu family's eldest son kept saying that her family was poor. Look at her, she's really not good at being mean. Ever since her family got better, she's been slapping her in the face a lot."
"After all, Shaofeng's wife's parents dote on their daughter. I heard from Shaofeng's mother before that most of the supplements during the confinement period were sent by her parents, as they were worried that their daughter wouldn't be able to take care of herself and her grandson wouldn't have enough milk to drink."
"To put it bluntly, Shaofeng is lucky to have such a Yue family. Maybe one day he can even be brought to the city and eat commercial grain."
